Synopsis

In 1989 the American Chemical Society formed a Task Force on General Chemistry to foster the development of alternative introductory chemistry material. "Chemistry: Structure and Dynamics" is one of the results to come from the work of this task force. Designed to provide all the flexible support materials instructors need to implement innovations in teaching introductory chemistry, this text uses a core/modular structure to give a brief introduction to the fundamental concepts and principles of chemistry. Unifying themes are used to integrate the core topics in this text, including the process of science, the relationship between molecular structure and physical and chemical properties, and the relationship between chemistry on the micro and macroscopic scales. This text incorporates new models and current methods of understanding chemical concepts, includes case studies to introduce readers to the methods and tools that chemists use to solve real-world problems, and contains organic and biochemical examples throughout to provide a balanced coverage of all areas of chemistry.
